Title: XrdHTTP thread looping after partial chunk requests: critical bugfix. 

The nightly HC tests that include XrdHTTP degraded mid-December 2014 after upgrading to

The symptom is thread looping after partial chunk requests under certain circumstances.
The consequence is the performance degrading to almost zero due to cpu consumption.
